Shrapnel Launchers are heavy-duty weapons wielded by Fallen of all stripes. This includes Dregs, Vandals, Captains, Barons, Archon priests, and Kells. The Devil Splicers use a SIVA enhanced version which deals greater damage and has higher muzzle velocity. The Taken use a version that deals Arc damage.

Gameplay

Guardians can use a wieldable version of the Shrapnel Launcher, called the Lord of Wolves. This version of the Shrapnel Launcher has the range of a typical fusion rifle and works exactly like it's Unweildable counterpart.

Grimoire description

The Shrapnel Launcher is a simple, effective, robust weapons system that the Fallen can build without risking vital resources.

The weapon fires loose-forged canisters of explosives and shrapnel down electromagnetic rails embedded in the barrel. Captains favor this weapon for its intimidating presence. It deals Solar damage.[1]

Trivia

  • Two of these weapons can be found inside the Tower alongside a collection of Cabal weaponry.
  • While the casque of the weapon appears to be maroon, the casque on the Lord of Wolves is brown
  • Following the release of Beyond Light, Taken Shrapnel Launchers, wielded by larger Ultra Taken Captains, began to do Solar damage instead of the Arc damage it usually does. It is unknown if it was an developer oversight or not.
